Expert Advice on Maintaining Free-Flowing
Drains Across London Homes and Businesses

Keeping your drains in top condition doesn’t have to be complicated. With a few simple habits, you can avoid blockages and expensive repairs. Here are some expert tips from Jet and Drain to keep your drainage system running smoothly:

Simple Tips to Keep Your Drains Flowing Freely

1. Avoid Pouring Fat, Oil, and Grease Down the Sink

When fat, oil, or grease cools, it solidifies and sticks to the walls of your pipes, causing blockages over time. Instead, pour these substances into a container, let them cool, and dispose of them in the bin.

2. Use Drain Guards

Place drain guards or strainers over plug holes to catch food scraps, hair, and other debris. This simple step prevents these materials from entering your drains and causing clogs.

3. Flush Only Toilet Paper

Toilets are designed for toilet paper and human waste only. Avoid flushing items like wet wipes, cotton buds, sanitary products, or dental floss, as they can cause severe blockages.

4. Run Hot Water Regularly

After using the sink, especially after washing dishes, run hot water for a few seconds to help clear away grease or soap that might have accumulated.

5. Be Careful with What Goes Down the Kitchen Sink

Scrape leftover food from plates into the bin before washing. Avoid letting coffee grounds, eggshells, or pasta go down the drain as these can build up and block the pipes.

6. Maintain Outdoor Drains

Regularly check and clear outdoor drains of leaves, mud, and other debris, especially during autumn and winter. This helps prevent water pooling and flooding.

7. Schedule Regular Drain Inspections

Professional CCTV drain surveys can detect early signs of damage or blockages, saving you money and hassle in the long run. Our team at Jet and Drain offers expert inspections to keep your drains in excellent shape.
